Hi gamo2hammerli, Stanley I think it is, I have nothing to post here yet.  
As I understand it the match should be done on  Monday, so I will try to post one here then.  
I have a B3 with iron and if I take the scope off of my Hunter 440 I could use it.  
I will post what I use.  Please no laughing at my scores.  

I am not sure about taking a photo of the target but I see you use a sheet behind it to make it visible.
How do you get the size small, for example 36 to 45 k?

Hey there Gordon,

It's good to see you back !!!!

The matches run from Monday to Sunday at midnight ! So get you post in before you go to bed Sunday :)

As for the photos, you have to reduce the photo down below 150KB to be able to post.

Good luck in you match !!!!!

Hi Gordon, a big welcome to the GTA forum and family.....and a big welcome to the Target Shooting matches too. You can use your B3 with Iron Sights here and use your scoped Hunter 440 in the "Open Rifle" and "Steriod 15" matches. Or you can use your B3 in all the matches if your vision`s that good. Good luck in your target matches.

Thank you Stanley.  Actually I was on the forum a couple of years back.  
We (GTA) had a shoot here in SC.
Here is the last post that I replied to after the shoot, I did not find any of the pictures etc from that weekend.

I see someone called me on the 100 yard range for J.
He really was shooting 100 yard plus with his "air guns" it was a blast,
I got in  a "mini-snipping" match there, which I liked.  
Never been much of a bulls eye shooter but this looks interesting.
I look forward to this type of match, and hope that you do not find my scores too low.
 I will make lots of folks look good with my shooting.
I promise you I will have fun and that is the name of it for me.
Thanks again for the welcome back,Gordon

No worries Gordon......you'll do fine. Even with a low score....you'll improve on that later on.

When I first started in the GTA Shooting matches I was pretty bad. I try to shoot off-hand everyday now....about 60 shots a sitting.....and my scores have improved about 12% over the year. Without the challenge....I probably won't shoot so much.

Managed to shoot one match after work in fast fading light. No complains since it was a windless day in very mild temps.
